Abstract
An ink chamber doctor, bearing two doctor blades that are arranged in the shape of a roof can be placed in position at an anilox roller of a printing machine and moved away from the same. To guarantee that the central plane of the ink chamber doctor always agrees with a diametral plane of the anilox roller so that the result is a uniform wearing of the doctor blades, the side faces of the strip-shaped housing of the ink chamber doctor bear guide means, which can be used in guides of the side members. The ink chamber doctor can be slid in the guides at least in its end region facing the anilox roller up to its positioning at said anilox roller in a plane that includes both the central plane of the ink chamber doctor and also the axis of the anilox roller. Furthermore, means for pressing the ink chamber doctor against the anilox roller and/or for holding the ink chamber doctor at the anilox roller are envisaged.
